Hagaparken

Local nameHagaparken
LocationSolna, Sweden

Hagaparken, or simply Haga in Solna Municipality just north of Stockholm, Sweden is a vast and popular nature area, with large parks, lakes, woods and gardens. Within the park is Haga Palace, King Gustav III's Pavilion, the Chinese Pavilion, the Echo Temple, the Turkish Kiosk, an older castle ruin and several other interesting buildings on the grounds. Included in the Haga Park is also the Royal Burial Ground of the Swedish Royal family, where several members and ancestors of the present Swedish royal Bernadotte family rest.

Hagaparken has historically been favoured by Swedish royalty, especially Gustav III who founded it and developed it 1780-1797, and by the famous troubadour Carl Michael Bellman, a contemporary of Gustav III, who is much associated with Haga due to the lyrics of his compositions, poems and his writings. The song Fjäriln vingad syns på Haga, one of Bellman's Fredman's Songs, is entirely dedicated to the park.
